Jan Karipel, owner of this brand is living in Poland now
He sales some frames in Poland in late '90, maybe he will have contacts to owners.... Polish circle od DH riders was not so big then
You should try to contact him.... jan.k@karpiel.com
Cheers, Marcin

Thanks for helping, Marcin!
Yeah, but first of all I want to try to find owners here on Retrobike. May be somebody help me
I know that Jan came back to Poland more than 2 years ago. Now he is working on Duncon Bikes, and I don't think he is carries about his old customers (biggest parts of them are live in the US), those frames were made more than 13-15 years ago, and therefore I think he does not help me.
Thanks again!

Regards, Artem.

You're right... But owner of Duncon Bikes - Piotr - was one of the best downhillers in Pl in '90 He was testing one of Karpiel frames (Disco Volante?) and he should have contacts to riders from those years...
And he's in cooperation with Jan Karpiel now...
That's why I suggested to contact with Jan

All the best, Marcin
